ALEXANDRA MARKET. April 80. 1857
There is an improved demand for Flour, and
local dealers seem more disposed to anticipate
their wants. Receipts of Wheat are light and the
markets are stronger in tone; sound, flinty lots
are wanted by home mills at the recent advance
and there is steadier feeling along the entire list
of futures. Corn, Rye and Oats are without
change. Butter, Eggs and other produce are quiet
Fish are scarce aud higher, but few being re-
ceved, due mainly to the cold northwest winds
and low tides.

MANY travel rs have failed to discover any
stone implem, ats in Africa, and in view Of
the comparative rarity of these finds it seems
probable that the use of these manufactures
was never so prevalent among the ancient in
habitantS OF Africa as among the prehistoric
races Of Eur,De and America. 4 possible
reason for this may be found in the fact that
in no part of the world do outcroppings OF
iron cover SO large an area as in Africa. IL
is within easy reach of the native tribes, and
those destitute OF it are supplied III the native
markets with its manufactured product by
tho=e that have learned how to srneIt iron ore
Il IS not ct all unlikely that before the
making of stone implements had become
great industry in Africa, as it did in more
northern ATTITUDES, some ingenious tribe dis
covered the uses and advantages Of iron It
is proyerbial that news spreads rapidly IN
Africa Tribe after tribe may have learned
of this discovery until Africa suddenly
emerged into the iron age without lingering
long in the greater barbarisIn of the stone
epoch-New York Sun.
